Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k*x                    This is the formula for a direct variation.

  • y = 20
  • x = 4                        Substitute these values into the direct variation

20 = 4 * k                        Divide by 4

20/4 = 4k/4

k = 5

Answer: the constant of variation is 5

Which one of the following reasons does NOT explain why 4x+5y≠9xy?
viva [34]
<h3>The terms 4x and 5y has different variable present in it. 4x + 5y \neq 9xy</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

4x + 5y \neq 9xy

<em><u>The reason is:</u></em>

When we are adding terms which has exactly the same variables, we must add the constants and let the result stand with variable

Which means,

4x + 10x = 14x

But,

We cannot add terms that has different variable

Which means,

4x + 5y

Here, both the terms 4x and 5y has different variable present in it. Hence they cannot be added together

4x+5y\neq 9xy
